YAFFT: Tomlinson for Moss

[lordtyranus]

I give Moss.

My team has 2 WR positions and 1 WR/RB position, I alraedy have 2 other excellent wideouts (Mason and Harrison), so its for the WR/RB position. In other words, whoever gets more pts is better.

Trade?

What do you have at RB now?

 

[lordtyranus]

My best RB is lee suggs. I don't have good backs. But like I said before, I can do either 3 WR and 2 backs, or 3 backs and 2 WR, so I am only concerned with total pt production.

The only issue, of course, is that LT hasn't had a bye week.

Lee Suggs is trading plays with William Green. You need a back.

 

[TheAudit]

If you only have Suggs then I would definitely do it.
LT and Moss have been about even so far this year but you do need a lot of help at the running back spot.

 

[trilks]

Well, I wouldn't call Mason and Harrison "excellent". If you are looking for total point production, LDT is outperforming Moss at the moment. Even though Culpepper is blowing up, I'd probably take the trade. And who knows if Moss' hammy will bother him the rest of the year.

I'd go for that trade in 2 seconds with moss possibly hurt (hammy).

 

[lordtyranus]

Mwilding, I'm not sure you understand. Our league has 2 WR, 2 RB, and a 5th spot of either.

Right now, I play moss, harrison, mason, and 2 backs. If I trade, I play LT, harrison, mason, and 2 backs still, so position is not an issue. Think of them as the same position.

Well, I wouldn't call Mason and Harrison "excellent".

Meh. Both have disappointed me thus far, even though I am 4-1 thnx to daunte. Last year then both got 1300 yards, who else should I get that is vastly superior?

I guess with your roster config, it doesn't matter. Just go for the highest point potential. I don't know how your league scores, but in my leage it is hard to beat an elite receiver. Hold off on your decision until more news on Moss comes out if you can...

 

[cloude27]

RB are always worth more than wideouts. RBs 20 plus touches vs. WR 5 plus touches. Not to mention LT is the man!!!

 

[Elbryn]

different case with moss though. he'll score as many or more tds as a running back. only question is whether this is a td league or yardage league. do you get reception pts? That said i do like the trade for LT. mainly because you have culpepper also. any points moss gets culpepper is going to get. if the vikings get stuffed a game you're going to suffer pretty badly. with LT you get a bit more diversified and a top level back who can carry a team. reche went out the last game with a knee injury.. so lt's receptions may pick up a bit as well.

haha, this thread is complete gibberish.

 

[Spooner]

Trade away Moss for LT no doubt.

then don't post in it. :thumbsdown:

Anyways back to the topic, I'd make the trade to get LT.

 

[lordtyranus]

Awesome guys. Made the trade, pending now. It's great, I got the 12th pick out of 12 and now I have possibly the top player, easily top 3.
